If you are wondering where you can watch the Euro 2012 matches have a look at the list below. Even though most of the cafés and bars have large screens I have included the sports pubs and bars that are most popular. If you have a place that is showing the football matches feel free to contact us.

Nicosia

Finbarr’s: an all time classic pub showing, not only the Euro 2012, but almost all popular football matches. Their food is mostly American with an Irish touch. Makarios Ave 52B, 22376625, NICOSIA
City pride: pub/bar/restaurant with a nice veranda and quite good food. It can get quite overcrowded so make sure to reserve a table Severi & Aiantos corner, 22666380, NICOSIA
Scarabeo: cafe/pub/bar where one can watch the matches over good food and a few offers on Euro nights (10€ for a burger and a pint, 15€ for a pizza and a pint). Go early as it is quite busy Euro or no Euro! Nikokreontos 4, 96696669, NICOSIA
Golden Habana: if you want to watch the football matches at a more cool and happening bar in the old city visit Habana. With a wide selection of beer (7 draught and 12 kinds of bottles) and free popcorn it is a good option. Food is also being served including platters like Nacho and mixed meat. Lykourogou 11-19, 22676868, old city of NICOSIA
